What it does

Cohere Prod Checklist is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Issue an evidence-backed Cohere production go or no-go decision covering capacity, quality, security, operations, and rollback. Use when preparing to launch a Cohere workload. Trigger with "Cohere production checklist", "Cohere go live", or "Cohere launch review".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/official-docs.md`). Compatibility notes: Designed for Claude Code; live verification requires network access and an approved Cohere API key

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Security operations and Feature launches and release readiness. The repository describes itself as: Model-agnostic agent-skills platform with a harness-free canonical layer, verified adapters, and the ccpi package manager. Explore at tonsofskills.com. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Preparing to launch a Cohere workload
  • With Cohere production checklist
  • Cohere launch review

Example prompts

  • “Cohere production checklist”
  • “Cohere go live”
  • “Cohere launch review”
  • “/cohere-prod-checklist”

Requirements

  • A credential in CO_API_KEY
  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Designed for Claude Code; live verification requires network access and an approved Cohere API key
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Glob, Grep, WebFetch, Write, Edit

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Verify production key ownership, model availability, contractual data terms, and current capacity.
  2. Attach offline and bounded live evaluations for quality, citations, safety, and failure handling.
  3. Confirm secret isolation, tenant boundaries, redaction, timeouts, retries, and circuit breaking.
  4. Set latency, error, throttle, cost, quality, and queue thresholds with named responders.
  5. Run a staged canary with rollback criteria and no unapproved model fallback.
  6. Record GO or NO-GO, approvers, evidence links, release window, and rollback command owner.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cfae287. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Glob
    • Grep
    • WebFetch
    • Write
    • Edit

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • docs.cohere.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • CO_API_KEY

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

  • Compatibility

    Designed for Claude Code; live verification requires network access and an approved Cohere API key

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Cohere Prod Checklist loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.9k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 72 tokens; SKILL.md has 427 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~72
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.9k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Cohere Production Readiness

Overview

Convert a staged Cohere integration into a reversible production release with explicit owners, thresholds, and evidence.

Prerequisites

  • The target repository, runtime, environment, and accountable owner
  • An approved Cohere team and key for any live verification
  • Current quality, security, privacy, capacity, and change-control requirements

Tool Discipline

Use Read, Glob, and Grep to inspect code, configuration, and evidence. Use WebFetch only for current Cohere primary documentation. Use Write or Edit only when the user requested implementation and the exact target files are known; never write credentials or customer content.

Current Contract

  • Public-facing workloads require the appropriate production key and acceptance of Cohere's current terms.
  • Sensitive-use declarations can affect approval and capacity; verify the actual organization state.
  • Models, limits, pricing, and deprecations must be checked at release time.
  • Production readiness includes retrieval or task quality, not merely a successful API call.

Authentication

Use an environment-specific key injected from an approved secret manager. Never print, persist, commit, or place CO_API_KEY in an example. Confirm access with the least costly bounded operation appropriate to the task, and treat key creation, rotation, revocation, role changes, and production-capacity requests as owner-approved actions.

Instructions

  1. Verify production key ownership, model availability, contractual data terms, and current capacity.
  2. Attach offline and bounded live evaluations for quality, citations, safety, and failure handling.
  3. Confirm secret isolation, tenant boundaries, redaction, timeouts, retries, and circuit breaking.
  4. Set latency, error, throttle, cost, quality, and queue thresholds with named responders.
  5. Run a staged canary with rollback criteria and no unapproved model fallback.
  6. Record GO or NO-GO, approvers, evidence links, release window, and rollback command owner.

Approval Boundaries

Do not expose or rotate keys, change Cohere Team roles, accept commercial terms, enable sensitive production data, increase spend or capacity, switch production models, send a support bundle, or execute model-proposed side effects without the accountable owner's approval. Keep diagnosis read-only unless implementation was requested.

Output

Return the resolved API and model contract, files or settings inspected, evidence collected, validation result, remaining risk, owner, and rollback or next action. Redact keys, authorization headers, prompts, retrieved documents, embeddings, customer identifiers, and unrestricted environment output.

Error Handling

ConditionResponse
Trial keyDo not launch a public production workload on evaluation capacity.
No quality gateBlock release until representative evaluation thresholds exist.
No rollbackBlock release until traffic can be restored safely.
Model near retirementMigrate or obtain an explicit time-bound exception.

Examples

Use this compact handoff shape to keep the selected scope, validation evidence, and operational result reviewable.

Input:

text
service=support-rag; canary=5%; quality-threshold=approved; rollback=ready

Expected handoff:

text
decision=GO; model=resolved; capacity=verified; evidence=linked
